The use of mats not approved by Fiat may  
interfere with access to the pedals and hinder  
the operation of the cruise control/speed  
limiter.  
Fitting  
Never drive with the glove box (if  
equipped) open when a passenger is  
sitting at the front. It may cause injury during  
sharp deceleration.  
The approved mats have two fasteners  
located underneath the seat.

220 V socket  
Depending on version, a 220 V/50 Hz socket  
(maximum power: 120 W) is located underneath  
the front right-hand seat and therefore  
accessible from row 2.  
This socket works with the engine running, as  
well as in STOP mode of Stop & Start.  
The socket can be used to connect a portable  
device or a USB memory stick.  
The socket reads audio files that are sent to your  
audio system to be played through the vehicle's  
speakers.  
These files can be managed using the steering-  
mounted controls or those on the audio system.

In the event of sudden deceleration,  
objects placed on the load space cover  
can turn into projectiles.  
Connect only one device to the socket at  
a time (do not use an extension lead or  
multi-socket) and only connect devices with  
Class II insulation (indicated on the device).  
Do not use devices with metallic cases.  
Loading area fittings  
Stowing rings  
If the power consumption becomes too  
high and when required by the vehicle's  
electrical system (particular weather  
conditions, electrical overload, etc.), the  
power supply to the socket will be cut off; the  
green indicator lamp goes off  
Use the stowing rings on the rear floor to secure  
loads.  
As a safety precaution in case of sharp braking,  
we recommend placing heavy objects as far  
forwards as possible (i.e. near the cab).  
We recommend immobilising the load by firmly  
securing it using the stowing rings present on  
the floor.  
Load space cover

loading area.  
For more information on the Interior fittings  
and in particular on the stowing rings, refer to  
the corresponding section.  
Load retaining partition  
Recommendations on  
loading  
3
The weight of the load must comply with  
the Gross Train Weight (GTW).  
For more information on Engine technical  
data and towed loads, refer to the  
corresponding section.  
To avoid the risk of injury or accident, the  
load must be made stable so that it  
cannot slide, tip over, fall or be projected. To  
do this, use only retaining straps that conform  
to current standards (DIN, for example).  
For more information on putting straps in  
place, refer to the manufacturer’s user guide.  
To prevent the load from sliding, there must  
not be any empty spaces between the load  
items and the vehicle wall panels.  
If you are using a carrying system (roof  
bars/roof rack), comply with the  
maximum loads associated with this system.  
For more information on Roof bars/Roof  
rack, refer to the corresponding section.  
Make sure that the size, shape and  
volume of the loads carried are  
compatible with the highway code and safety  
regulations and do not impair the driver’s field  
of vision.  
As well as the straps, optimise the stability  
of the load with stable handling equipment  
(wedges, rigid blocks of wood or padding).  
On the floor, behind the front seats, a vertical  
partition protects the driver and front passengers  
against the risk of load movement.  
Steel or glazed partitions separate the loading  
area from the cab.  
When washing your vehicle, never clean  
the inside directly using a water jet.  
The load must be evenly distributed in  
the loading area so as not to interfere  
with driving the vehicle.  
Place the load close to the side wall panels,  
or push it against the side wall panels  
between the wheel arches.  
However, it is recommended that heavy  
objects are placed as close to the cab as  
possible as a precaution in case of sharp  
braking.

The storage space can only support a  
maximum weight of 3 kg; do not exceed  
this maximum load in use.  
For the table to run smoothly, ensure that  
no objects are blocking the space used  
by the runner on the floor.  
Before manoeuvring the table, check that  
there is nothing on the table.  
Moving forward or backward  
Unfolding  
The table has a central storage space covered  
by a lid. When deployed, this device becomes  
a table with two table tops on which you can  
place objects. The central part has two cup/  
can holders and can also be used to hold small  
objects (e.g. credit card, pen).  
The assembly is mounted on a runner allowing it  
to be positioned either in row 2 or row 3.  
► Operate the control on the top and pull the  
table assembly up until it clicks into place.  
► Pull each table top fully up then pivot them on  
each side into the horizontal position.  
► Lift the control (without going beyond the  
point of resistance) and slide the assembly  
forwards or backwards.  
► Release the control when it is in the desired  
position.  
► Check that the table is secured on the runner.  
If this is not the case, move the assembly slightly  
to the next notch on the runner.

anchorages and tip the table assembly forward.  
► Remove the table assembly through the  
sliding door in row 2.  
With the table removed, you can turn it 180°.  
Remove a seat to make this easier.  
Before stowing the table tops, check that  
they are clear. Before tipping the  
assembly down, check that the two table tops  
have clicked home in the low position and that  
there is nothing in the cup holder area (such  
as a can or pen).  
Check that there is nothing in the space  
around the runner on the floor, so that  
the table disengages cleanly.  
Refitting  
► Check that there is no object obstructing the  
runner and preventing proper locking.  
Cup holders  
Two cups or cans and small objects (such as  
a credit card, portable ashtray or pen) can be  
carried in the middle of the unfolded table.  
Liquids carried in an open vessel (a cup  
or mug) could be spilt, presenting a risk.  
Be careful.  
Never use the table in this position while the  
vehicle is being driven.

Ease of use and comfort  
► Check that the control is in the upper position  
(locking mechanism armed). If not, lift this control  
fully to arm the mechanism.  
- risk of damaging the surface and starting a  
fire!  
► Place the front of the table on the runner.  
Taking care not to interfere with the control,  
tip the assembly towards the rear until you hear  
it lock into place.  
► Check that the assembly is fully locked into  
the runner. If not, slide the assembly gently along  
the runner until it meets the next notch.  
When the table is deployed, each table  
top can support a maximum of 10 kg. If  
you exceed the maximum weight limit, you  
risk damaging part or all of the table.  
Never lift the table when it is between  
individual seats; you risk damaging the table  
tops.  
Incorrect use of the table can cause  
serious injury.  
Check that the table is fully locked into  
the runner - risk of injury in the event of  
an accident or sudden braking.  
Never use the table in the open or deployed  
position while the vehicle is in motion. In the  
event of sudden braking, any object placed on  
the table can become a projectile.  
Ensure that the table is correctly stowed in  
the low position before setting off.  
Never use the table tops as seats or lean on  
them.  
► Release the control until the guide locks into  
the runner.  
Be careful of passengers' feet when  
manoeuvring the assembly.  
A label attached to the side of the table  
serves as a reminder of this.  
Storage off the runner  
If removing the table from the vehicle for  
storage, ensure that it is placed in a  
clean area, in order to avoid introducing any  
foreign bodies into the mechanisms.  
The table must be placed outside the vehicle,  
on a flat and level surface, resting on the  
guide so as not to damage visible parts.  
Before moving the table or an individual  
seat forwards or backwards, make sure  
that the seat's backrest is upright and the  
table is stowed.  
Never place hot objects such as  
saucepans or frying pans on the table  
Caution, when out of the vehicle, the  
table leans to the right or left when  
placed on a surface.

Ease of use and comfort  
To ensure correct operation of the  
air conditioning system, have it checked  
according to the recommendations in the  
Manufacturer’s service schedule.  
When towing a large load on a steep gradient  
in high temperatures, switching off the air  
conditioning increases the available engine  
power, enhancing the towing capacity.

Avoid driving for too long with the  
ventilation off or with prolonged operation  
of interior air recirculation. Risk of misting and  
deterioration of the air quality!  
When stowing the table tops, never place  
your hand inside the slide area - risk of  
trapping your fingers! Use the handle  
provided.

If the interior temperature is very high  
after the vehicle has stood for a long  
time in the sunshine, air the passenger  
compartment for a few moments.  
Put the air flow control at a setting high  
enough to quickly change the air in the  
passenger compartment.  
Depending on version and country of sale, the

Heating and Ventilation  
Advice  
Using the ventilation and air  
conditioning system  
Stop & Start  
The heating and air conditioning systems  
only work when the engine is running.  
Temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start  
system to maintain a comfortable temperature  
in the passenger compartment.  
To ensure that air is distributed evenly,  
keep the external air intake grilles at the base  
of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents, the  
air outlets and the air extractor in the boot  
free from obstructions.  
► Do not cover the sunshine sensor located  
on the dashboard; this sensor is used to  
regulate the automatic air conditioning  
system.  
► Operate the air conditioning system for at  
least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a month to  
keep it in good working order.  
► If the system does not produce cold air,  
switch it off and contact a Fiat Dealership or a  
qualified workshop.  
Condensation created by the air  
conditioning results in a discharge of  
water underneath the vehicle. This is perfectly  
normal.  
For more information on Stop & Start, refer  
to the corresponding section.  
Servicing the ventilation and air  
conditioning system  
► Ensure that the passenger compartment  
filter is in good condition and have the filter  
elements replaced regularly.  
We recommend using a composite passenger  
compartment filter. Its specific active additive  
helps protect against polluting gases and bad  
smells.
